I think I want some forks for my B7610 with an LA352 loader. Is my tractor big enough (24 hp) for them to be useful? Any suggestions for what I need? Best design? How much capacity? Good places to buy etc. I want to use them for moving brush, rocks, railroad ties, cement parking stops, pallets etc. I want them to be heavy duty, but more than the capacity of the loader is overkill. I would love to hear from people who have them for a similar sized tractor.

You have 2 options. You can either make them yourself or buy a set from a company such as Payne's (they are a TBN advertiser). Expect to pay around $300 for a clamp on set. You can build them for a lot less.
You only need lightweight forks since your bucket capacity is only around 800 lbs or so.
The set I built was for a B2410, a sister tractor to yours. You can read about them on the following thread.

Yes - just don't expect that you will be able to pick up really heavy items. I have a B2910 and set of Woods DuAll forls and they are quite handy for moving stuff around - although I often wish I had 2x or 3x the loader capacty.
